Hi Patrick,

I agree with you: Win32 programming in Euphoria is a lot easier with
Win32Lib than without it. But the question was not referring to Win32Lib in
particular, so I thought it was good to point also to other sources of Win32
programming. And, if you study these sources you can learn a lot from them.
For instance, Jacques Deschênes has written Win32 function wrappers before
there was Win32Lib.
(Sorry, David Cuny, I sincerely don't want to downsize you and your
Win32Lib. You've done lots of good work for the Euphoria society and, BTW,
your music sounds good too   )

N.B. (Dutch follows)    Patrick, ik zit bij Zonnet omdat dat zo ongeveer de
eerste gratis provider was met POP3-email. Ik heb er geen klachten over. Ze
geven bijvoorbeeld geen opdringerige advertentie-regeltjes in kop- of
voetteksten!

Bye,     Ad
